this country does not so transcend our evangelical agencies as to justify alarm. IV. This country, with its present characteristics, furnishes extraordinary and inexorable obstacles to the controlling prevalence of Romanism. Inferences: (1.)

If no cause of fear, then it is unwise, as well as unkind, to employ our influence in denouncing the Romanists.

Economy of Nature subordinate to the Moral Government of God, by Rev. George Duffield, D. D. 127. Skep- ticism as to the existence and gov- ernment of God 129. That the economy of nature is subordinate to moral government, reasonable from the nature of the case 130. The fact and nature of the mira- cles of Jesus Christ: Laws of na- ture have been set aside 132. Two classes of facts prove the subordi- nation of nature to moral govern- ment of God 133. Dispensations of Providence 134. Provisions of the moral law never altered 136.
Salvation of Jesus Christ does not invalidate the authority of the moral law 137. Experience of every unconverted sinner proves that God does not recede from his law 138. Retributions of the judg- ment will demonstrate the fact 140.
